Rouhani Donates $170,000 to Iran’s anti-zionist Jewish Hospital

Iranian President Sheikh Hasan Rouhani has donated Thursday $170,000 to the country’s only Jewish hospital, his second such gesture since taking office.

The official IRNA news agency said that Rouhani has given the same amount from government funds as he did last year to the Dr. Sapir charity hospital, established in 1942 in the capital, Tehran.

The donation is seen as part of Rouhani’s pledge to pay more attention to the country’s minorities.

Iran’s Jews number about 25,000, making it the largest Jewish community in any country in the Middle East outside of Israel.
